gastrodin/necrosis

Cancer is a common disease threatening human health, chemotherapy is widely used in clinical treatment of cancer, but chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) has a relevant impact on life quality of cancer patients. Administration of gastrodin can relieve chronic pain to cancer patients

BACKGROUND Activated microglia play a pivotal role neurodegenerative diseases by producing a variety of proinflammatory mediators including tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), interleukin-1bea (IL-1β) and nitric oxide (NO) that are toxic to neurons and oligodendrocytes. METHODS In view of the

The ubiquitous environmental pollutant 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) has been shown to trigger neurotoxicity. In this study, we investigated the protective effects of gastrodin on TCDD-induced neurotoxicity and the underlying molecular mechanisms. The results show that gastrodin

The present study showed that the latency of rats moving on a vertical grid was significantly prolonged, and the number of rats sliding down from the declined plane was increased remarkably, in rotenone-induced Parkinson's disease model rats compared with control rats. The moving latency recovered

Gastrodin (GAS), the main phenolic glycoside extracted from Gastrodia elata Blume, exhibits potential renoprotective properties. Here, we examined the protective effects of GAS on carbon tetrachloride (CCl4)-induced kidney inflammation and fibrosis in mice, and explored its underlying mechanisms.

Ferroptosis is a form of necrosis caused by iron-induced accumulation of lipid hydroperoxide, involving several molecular events, and has been implicated in Parkinson's disease. Gastrodin is a component of Gastrodia elata Blume with strong antioxidant activity. We examined whether gastrodin can

Spinal cord injury (SCI) is one of the most severe traumatic injuries that results in dysfunction of limbs and trunk below the damaged section. Recent studies have shown that gastrodin (GAS) could improve the recovery of SCI. In the current study, we aimed to examine the possible mechanism

Microglia contribute to the regulation of neuroinflammation and play an important role in the pathogenesis of brain disorders. Thus, regulation of neuroinflammation triggered by activation of microglia has become a promising therapeutic strategy. Here, we investigated the beneficial effects of

OBJECTIVE To investigate the neuroprotective effect of gastrodin on retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) in an acute ocular hypertension (AOH) rat model and to identify its possible mechanism. METHODS AOH rat model was performed in a randomly selected eye by anterior chamber perfusion and either received

The phenolic glucoside gastrodin, a main constituent of a Chinese traditional herbal medicine, has been known to display several biological and pharmacological properties. However, the role and precise molecular mechanisms explaining how gastrodin suppresses the inflammatory response in septic

Redox impairment, inflammation, and increased rates of cell death are central players during neurodegeneration. In that context, activation of the transcription factor nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) has been viewed as an interesting strategy in order to reduce the impact of redox

Gastrodin (GAS), the main phenolic glycoside extracted from Gastrodia elata Blume, exhibited potential neuroprotective properties. Here we examined the protective effects of GAS against lead(Pb)-induced nerve injury in mice, and explores its underlying mechanisms. Our research findings

BACKGROUND Microglial activation plays an important role in neurodegenerative diseases by producing several proinflammatory enzymes and proinflammatory cytokines. The phenolic glucoside gastrodin, a main constituent of a Chinese herbal medicine, has been known to display anti-inflammatory

Fulminant hepatitis (FH), characterized by overwhelmed inflammation and massive hepatocyte apoptosis, is a life-threatening and high mortality rate. Gastrodin (GTD), a phenolic glucoside extracted from Gastrodiaelata Blume, exerts anti-apoptosis, and anti-inflammatory activities. In the present
